Choice opportunities 

The Resident Incentive Program allows second and third-year residents to be in a better position to have more educational opportunities than faculty-sponsored activities. This includes attending a company-sponsored conference or a designated time waiting for the GME department and company admissions.

 In addition, Saint Louis University's GME office offers support for a small number of other electives for residential training. The purpose of these transfers is to enhance the educational experience of the resident in the residency-training program; expand SLU's visibility locally and internationally; and create special opportunities for residents who care for the vulnerable.


Quality plans 

The GME Quality Program is part of a larger effort by the School of Medicine to create a healthy learning culture and environment. The program is led by a committee in addition to a core group of faculty and residents called "Wellness Champions". These individuals help our institution develop a variety of quality measures for the benefit of medical trainees and all graduate programs. Resources and opportunities to promote and support quality include: 

 

Department-level funding for strategic programs and activities, which support the interests of residents and others. Those responsible for these resources are the "Winner(s) of merit" and are awarded annually for the benefit of all medical students. The following are examples of former residents and welfare programs sponsored by the Department of Dermatology: indoor climbing, evenings at Top Golf, bowling, picnics, etc.

The Professional Monitoring Center is the primary point of contact and support for medical students, residents, faculty, and staff who experience and/or witness any type of inappropriate behavior and/or bullying in the learning environment. The University's Behavioral Health Program (UHP) provides trainees with free access to private health services and professionals. Saint Louis University cares about the well-being and success of its medical students and knows that you may encounter many problems and challenges throughout your life. The program covers up to six sessions with no requirement for a mental health assessment, meaning that UHP members can receive advice on any issue or life event that may be causing problems or improve their well-being - be yourself.
